STUDS TERKEL

I am reading Terkel's book Coming of Age. It is a chronicle of interviews he had with people who shaped the 20th Century. These aren't the people you would be familiar with. Stud's hung out with and was friends to the marginalized . He fought against any prejudice aligning himself with Blacks such as Mahalia Jackson, gay and lesbians, downtrodden workers, unionists, and was comfortable with anyone that was open, honest and willing to speak out. He had a Chicago radio program that interviewed people (we would call them podcasts today) from 1952 to 1997. He wrote oral histories of his famous people and of the everyday person. His oral history of people on the home front during WWII won a Pulitzer prize and made me love the way he wrote and spoke and how much he wanted to record the unspoken stories of everyone. He understood that everyone had a story to tell. I am sharing this because if you never heard of Studs Terkel, you are missing an American treasure. Check him out. Here is part of his story from Wikpedia:

A political leftist, Terkel joined the Works Progress Administration's Federal Writers' Project, working in radio, doing work that varied from voicing soap opera productions and announcing news and sports to presenting shows of recorded music and writing radio scripts and advertisements. In the late 1940's he voiced characters in WMAQ's Destination Freedom series, written by Richard Durham.[5] His own well-known radio program, titled The Studs Terkel Program, aired on 98.7 WFMT Chicago between 1952 and 1997.[6] The one-hour program was broadcast each weekday during those 45 years. On this program, he interviewed guests as diverse as Martin Luther King Jr., Leonard Bernstein, Mort Sahl, Bob Dylan, Alexander Frey, Dorothy Parker, Tennessee Williams, Jean Shepherd, Frank Zappa, and Big Bill Broonzy.

In the late 1940s and early 1950s, Terkel was also the central character of Studs' Place, an unscripted television drama about the owner of a greasy-spoon diner in Chicago through which many famous people and interesting characters passed. This show, Marlin Perkins's Zoo Parade, Garroway at Large, and the children's show Kukla, Fran, and Ollie are widely considered canonical examples of the Chicago School of Television.

Terkel published his first book, Giants of Jazz, in 1956. He followed it in 1967 with his first collection of oral histories, Division Street: America, with 70 people talking about the effect on the human spirit of living in an American metropolis.[7][8][9]

He also served as a distinguished scholar-in-residence at the Chicago History Museum. He appeared in the film Eight Men Out, based on the Black Sox Scandal, in which he played newspaper reporter Hugh Fullerton, who tries to uncover the White Sox players' plans to throw the 1919 World Series. Terkel found it particularly amusing to play this role, as he was a big fan of the Chicago White Sox (as well as a vocal critic of major league baseball during the 1994 baseball strike), and gave a moving congratulatory speech to the White Sox organization after their 2005 World Series championship during a television interview.

Terkel received his nickname while he was acting in a play with another person named Louis. To keep the two straight, the director of the production gave Terkel the nickname Studs after the fictional character about whom Terkel was reading at the time—Studs Lonigan, of James T. Farrell's trilogy.

Terkel was acclaimed for his efforts to preserve American oral history. His 1985 book "The Good War": An Oral History of World War Two, which detailed ordinary peoples' accounts of the country's involvement in World War II, won the Pulitzer Prize. For Hard Times: An Oral History of the Great Depression, Terkel assembled recollections of the Great Depression that spanned the socioeconomic spectrum, from Okies, through prison inmates, to the wealthy. His 1974 book, Working, in which (as reflected by its subtitle) People Talk About What They Do All Day and How They Feel About What They Do, also was highly acclaimed. Working was made into a short-lived Broadway show of the same title in 1978 and was telecast on PBS in 1982. In 1995, he received the Chicago History Museum "Making History Award" for Distinction in Journalism and Communications. In 1997, Terkel was elected a member of The American Academy of Arts and Letters. Two years later, he received the George Polk Career Award in 1999.

Before anyone could answer the mage, the sound of loud, confident footsteps from behind the party. They all turned in unison to face the entrance. Emerging from the darkness was a figure wearing an annoyed smirk across his face. His armor was worn and dyed a bright red. His faded golden hair was swept backwards, the point of his ears poking through, marking him as an Elf.

“So, it was you who caused this bump in my plans. I thought as much.” The figure spoke as he continued to walk towards them. Armand bristled and hefted his hammer, “Your plans? I don’t think we’ve ever met.”

“You know it’s tragically funny, this world we live in. I have tried so many ways to make you all just disappear, and yet it eludes me. Everywhere I turn, there you are. And Servance, the coward, keeps running from me. Too pathetic and terrified to just provide me with what I want.” The man continued, stopping just short of the group. The closer he approached the more his advanced age became apparent. His hair was losing the luster Elves were known for. His eyes, sunken into the sockets, had lost their sparkle. Vestare gripped her axe, every muscle tensed and ready to strike. Shenzu, too, had taken position so he could leap at the man at the slightest threat.

okay so for the third time in two days i was reading a steddie fic, minding my business, enjoying the story, when the author decided to do a drive-by on billy??? like just added some untagged, unwarned billy defamation into their fic??? things that had no bearing on the plot, did not need to be said at all, mind.

and like, i’ve been in fandom for years, okay, i’ve been around the block, i’ve seen plenty of character hate and all that, but back in MY day we used to TAG our character bashing, not just let any old fool stumble upon it!!! is that not basic knowledge anymore??? like, when you take a character and make them the villain of your fic, or even just decide to shit talk them halfway through, that’s when you tag “not billy hargrove friendly” or “billy bashing” or something !!! have ur opinions and all but don’t just casually sprinkle in some hate for a character without warning the audience that’s what they’re getting into. that’s just fandom etiquette 101!!!

anyways so i guess here’s a psa for y’all out there who dislike or hate a certain character and/or are using that character as an antagonist in your plot: please tag your works! tags like “Not [Character Name] Friendly”, “[Character Name] Bashing”, or “Anti [Character Name]” are widely used and are considered common courtesy.

and if you’re refraining from posting these tags in fear of less people reading your fics, remember that 1) people are allowed to choose not to engage with content that contains elements that make them uncomfortable, and 2) plenty of people will see those tags and still read and enjoy your fic, even if they like the character you’re bashing! having a heads up allows them to go into it, knowing what to expect, so as not to be caught off guard later on. content warnings are always helpful and should be the default.

#d speaks #billy hargrove #steddie #yes i’m tagging this steddie because apparently the steddie authors are the ones who need to hear this!!#stranger things #smdh it happened once and i was like. whatever that’s annoying but the author is just a one off #but then it happened AGAIN in a completely different fic w a different aurhor. and then again!#all different authors #all writing the same ship #and bashing the same character #and that leaves such a foul taste in my mouth!!!#just because u happen to ship steddie AND hate billy doesn’t mean everyone else does #not everyone reading a steddie fic is automatically down for billy bashing !!!#just irritating i’m too old for fandom drama to be making its way into my ao3 experience

I know i request alot but i love your writing smmm

Do u mind if u r comie with writing law’s reaction if he thought his girlfriend was cheating on him?like his reaction and if he confronts or not

Emphasize on thought (she didn't cheat he misunderstood)

Stay safe aurhor chan 🖤

Hiya bb, no worries!! I'm glad that you like my writing!! And you stay safe too!! But I also hope this is to your liking!!

[Heads up!: mention of hypothetical infidelity but isn't really abt that, Law is just an anxious babe, insecurity, a lil angst, afab!reader]

"Are you excited about going home?"

You shrug, trying to play off the rise of nervouse excitement that swells in your chest as you answer Penguin. "A little, it's been ages so I'm not sure anyone's going to remember me."

"I'm sure they will," Penguin reassures you and you beam, though it dims a little as you're abruptly reminded of someone who had not shared your enthusiasm about stopping for supplies at your home island.

Law is never particularly enthusiastic about anything, but the soft smile he'd worn at the start of your excited ramble about where Bepo said you were heading had disappeared at a record rate. By the time you were done, his answers had gone to a measure of about two words if you were lucky, and you'd finally given up, heart sinking.

You don't know what the problem is. It's not as though you're planning on leaving the Heart Pirates, planning on leaving him ㅡ you would never. Though you've missed the comforts that always come with the thoughts of home, you're not about to abandon the home that you have now.

ㅡ

Law is afraid that you'll leave.

He doesn't know where the fear has come from given that it's baseless, but the enthusiasm and soft-expressioned way you describe your home island only furthers that creeping feeling until he's trying hard not to think about.

And truth be told, he wouldn't blame you if you did. Being a pirate is dangerous, especially when the bounty only continues to grow ㅡ and though he absolutely tries, he knows he can't promise your safety all the time.

You deserve stability and safety, a future that you can look to and find strong foundation in. You deserve more than what he can give you.

And though it hurts to think about the idea of losing you, Law tells himself that he'll support your decision, no matter what it may be.

ㅡ

To your surprise, there's more than a few people who recognize you, waving and offering greetings.

"Look at you, a genuine pirate now!"

"Staying out of trouble, right? Don't wanna see that pretty face on a Wanted poster!"

Law watches the way you interact with them and chastises himself for getting too into his worries of you wanting to stay here. It's clear that you miss it, but you never stray far from the small group that you've lead to gather supplies.

That is until there's a call of your name and Law looks over to find it to be an unfamilar man, perhaps a year or two younger than himself. He opens his arms, and jealousy rears its ugly green head in Law's chest when you dart forward to throw yourself into him.

He spins you, earning a shriek of delight from you before he sets you down. What he says next is inaudible, but he talks for several moments before your expression shifts to an unreadable one.

"Hey guys," you call, "canㅡcan you finish up without me? I'll meet you in a little bit, I just need to go do something."

There's varying murmurs of agreement, but something ugly blossoms in Law's stomach at the way your hand curls around the newcomer's.

ㅡ

When sunset rolls around and you still haven't come back to the Polar Tang, the ugly thing has curled claws deep into him and sewn its seeds of dissent.

Law knows you would never cheat on him, he knows ㅡ but the familiarity with which you'd treated the other man makes him wonder if you'd be happier with him rather than Law.

Again, if you'd be happier here.

Staring out at the town, it takes him a minute to register that the form growing closer is you, heart giving an uneasy lurch when he sees you lift an arm to your face. Had that other man hurt you?

A quiet "shambles" has him just a few feet from you now and you jolt, startled. "Law?"

"You've been crying," Law points out instead, the tear tracks that glisten on your cheeks. "Did that guyㅡ"

"He didn't do anything," you say, sweeping a hand over both your eyes to rid yourself of remnants. "He went with me to see my parents' graves. He's pretty much been my big brother since I was little, so he said he told everyone else that he wanted to be the one to tell me they'd passed."

Oh.

Law feels awful. He'd been worrying about you cheating on him, leaving him ㅡ and you hadn't been doing either. How could he think so little of you?

He steps closer, tugging you into his arms, heart aching at the muffled hiccup. He doesn't need to ask if you're okay when you're clearly not ㅡ and he feels even worse for the brief flare of satisfaction that you cling to him, fingers curled into his jacket.

"Sorry for worrying you," you mumble softly, "Should've come back sooner."

"Don't apologize." He pauses. "...it's me who should be doing that." When you pull away to look up at him, he looks away. "...I was worried you'd want to stay here. It's safer here, and you could find someone to give you what you deserve. Things I don't know if I can."

You stare blankly as you register his words, and he absolutely loathes the renewed shine of tears in your eyes. "Leave the Heart Pirates? The Polar Tang? You? Trafalgar Law, I would never."

He flinches at the usage of his full name, watching as you sniffle. "You owe me for making me cry again, idiot."

The uneasy tension in his chest starts to let up. "I do," he says. "I'll do anything you want me to."

You take the half-step needed to press your face back into his chest, your voice mumbled. "Can you shambles us back onto the ship? I'm tired and I wanna go home. My real home."

Relief floods his veins at your reassurance that you aren't going anywhere anytime soon, that he has nothing to worry about. That you're his as much as he's yours.

"Yeah," he answers. "Let's go home."

Hiii sweetie I love you writing sooo much I was wondering if you could do jjk x reader where they go on a movie date and they just end up making out

Thank you and have a good day

Absolutely! Warning: does get a bitsurgestive but not enough to be smut.

INCLUDING: Gojo and Megumi

•Gojo•

He sat down next to you holding a bucket of popcorn.

"I bet he's going to due." Gojo said.

"Your just saying that because he's my favourite." You responded annoyed taking a hand full of popcorn.

Already 20 minutes in the popcorn was low. You reached in again trying to feel around for what eves left when you felt Gojos body twitch. You looked at his face, you couldn't really tell because of how dark it was but you could tell by his facial expression. He was red.

"Satoru are you-?" You blinked in disbelife.

"SHUT up" he half yelled in embarassment

Lucky for him there was only one other person in the theatre sitting in the front row, no way they would see or hear you guys, right?

You stood up and took the popcorn bucket, placing it on your seat, before sitting on his lap, looking right at him.

The hairs on the back of his neck stood up. Hid body got even hotter as you leaned in and latched your lips onto his. He didn't pull back. He put his hand on the back of your head only deepening the kiss.

The loud lines of the characters in the movie rang through out the cinema. Things only escalated from there, your hand slowly feeling up his shirt, drawing lines on his toned body.

He groaned letting go of your lips only to trail down your neck. His hands wandered up your back gently.

"NOOOOOOO"

The sudden sound almost made you jump, looking back at the screen you saw your favourite character die.

"I told you" Gojo mumbled his hand tracing down your back now and a bit further.

♧Megumi♧

You sat with him waiting for the movie to start, Yuji and Nobora had both cancelled making it just you guys. You just didn't know that it was their plan all along.

The lights dimmed and the picture started to play. The rooms tempretur also dropped making you shiver. Megumi looked over at you shivering, he saw goose bumps form on your thigh. In pure instinct he reached his hand over and rubbed it, making the goose bumps go away.

A blush creeping up your face and he suddenly realised what he had done. He pulled his hand back.

"Uhm..sorry, I just, you look cold" He said Turning his face away.

"Megumi" your lips curled up slightly

"I'm cold here to." You said moving his hand further up your thigh.

"Is that so?" He said rubbing it slowly.

"Yeah" you groaned.

"Your back looks cold to." He said slipping a hand up your shirt.

"I feel cold evey where" you said.

He lifted you in a swift motion placing you on top of him.

"Your lips look really cold-" before he finished he was cut off by you kissing him.

You both melted into eachother.

Neither of you pulled away only letting it get more heated as his hands roamed and so did yours.

"MEGUMI?!" a loud woice rang through out the cinema.

You jumped looking over to see Gojo holding his own popcorn just starting at the end of the aisle.

"Well gave to continue later" He sighed before he got up a tried to strangle Gojo.

THANK YOU FOR READING

AURHORS NOTEEE: It is unedited and thank you anyone for ur request. I still have 1 mote Gojo Angst fic that's so close but I decided to edit once in my life so. Andyways have a good when ever and reblogs r welcomed.

This Ariel is a Headutt-er!

Pairing: Natasha Romanoff x alien!fem!reader (Mantis and Peter Quill's younger sibling)(reader is the same species as Mantis)

Warnings : A wee bit of violence

Summary: Instead of Prince Eric, it was Ariel herself who swept you off your feet.

Aurhor's note: everyone is alive in all my fics, except if a specific setting or timeline is mentioned

This is a fic requested by @fayhar ! I'm so sorry it took me so long to finish this, I got too caught up with classes. But it's summer break now and I can finally write again! Hope you like this fic! English isn't my first language so please point out the mistakes nicely, I'll fix it 🥲

It all started when Yondu handed Peter a DVD that he had obtained from Earth.

The cover of the DVD box read 'The Little Mermaid' with a picture of what looked like a girl who is half Terran and half fish with bright red hair.

It was the first time the gang ever watched an animated movie during movie night and everyone had different reactions. Drax made silly comments, Rocket complained about certain scenes, Peter would place a kiss on the crown of Gamora's head during the more romantic scenes, and she would cuddle closer to him, Mantis and Groot were gushing about the little details and Nebula, surprisingly, seemed to enjoy the movie.

And you? You were enchanted by the whole thing, from the dinner scene, to the little fair date and boat ride. From all catchy songs and romantic lines to the heartbreaking conflicts ang the heroic fights.

You laughed, you cried, and you were undeniably HOOKED.

And let's just say with a little bit of begging (and using your big black puppy eyes), you managed to convince your brother to get Yondu to find more of these wonderful films.

You would consume every single thing that Yondu could get his hands on in a crazy short amount of time. Mantis would find you huddled up into a little ball on the couch in the middle of the night, eyes gleaming like a little child as you watched whatever new DVD that Yondu had gotten his hands on.

From old Disney movies like Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast, to the more modern ones like Tangled and Frozen, you had seen them all.

But alas, 'The Little mermaid' is the one that holds your heart.

And as result of all the Disney that you've been slurping up, you eventually found yourself wondering if you're going to get your happy ending.

When is a prince Eric coming to sweep you off your feet? Take you on carriage rides and dancing at carnivals? Are you even going to get a happy ending?

Your brother told you there is someone for everyone in the galaxy.

"And when you meet them.....You'll know it."

He'd said, as he looked at Gamora with a warm loving gaze.

You found it hard to believe.

You'll know it when you meet them? How???

You were skeptical.

Until one day when the Guardians got invited to a party by Tony Stark himself, did you find yourself staring at a certain woman.

It was nearly midnight, the music was still blaring loudly and you found yourself getting a little too overwhelmed, so you decided to flee the scene to catch some fresh air.

You stepped outside, eyes closed as you feel the cool wind gently brush against your skin. You had expected that the party was going to be a little too much for you, but what you hadn't expected was for there to be someone else at the balcony.

This 'someone else' was a woman, and beautiful one at that. She was wearing a black cocktail dress, the fabric hugging her body in all the right places. Her fiery red mane was curled to perfection, the luscious tendrils framed her face like puzzle pieces that fell perfectly into place.

Ariel.

That was the first word that came to your mind.

Her eyes were closed, lengthy eyelashes fluttered in the wind, and she huffed out a deep sigh, seemingly bothered by whatever it is that's on her mind.

You reached out to place a hand on her shoulder, aiming to calm her down and maybe make her feel a little more at ease with the help of your powers.

But the slight brush of your fingertips against her skin was enough to make you end up on the cold ground. With your wrists pinned to the hard surface nonetheless.

Your antennaes tensed, the gears in your head were running miles per hour, one second you were reaching out and the next thing you know you had been headbutted onto the floor into a vulnerable position.

With your mind still spiralling, you spat out the first thing in your mind.

"H-hello! A-are you Ariel?"

What?

It looked like your question had taken the woman aback, her eyebrows furrowed in confusion. Did this bitch with antennaes just ask her if she was a Disney character?

"Am- Am I who??"

"A-ariel?"

You had no idea what's going on, but you were somehow very, very intrigued by the woman on top of you.

The woman looked at you up and down at your attire.

Party wear.

It took her a second before she realized that you were just one of the people invited tonight, and she quickly apologized.

"Sorry about that, my fight or flight reflexes just kicked in. And to answer your question, no, I am not Ariel. "

She chuckled in amusement when she saw you slightly deflate.

"Aw... Bummer"

You had mumbled to yourself, earning another chuckle from the redhead beside you.

You both stayed silent for a while after that, blocking out the muffled music playing inside and relishing in the peaceful night atmosphere outside.

"So...You're really not Ariel?"

Her head turned to look you, elbow on the balcony railing with her chin resting on ther palm.

"Sorry to dissapoint you, but no, I'm not."

The small pout that appeared on your lips made her smile.

The both of you started to pick on some random topics to talk about. Your jobs, hobbies, crime cases, outer space, everything you could possibly imagine.

Natasha could feel the click and so could you, the both of you felt a lot more settled than expected.

"So...Are you going to tell me your name"

You paused, you had completely forgotten to tell her your name. She let out a breathy laugh as you come to the realization.

"My name's Y/n, I'm one of the Guardians."

you shyly mumbled, hand fiddling with an antennae, a sign that you're embarassed, it's a little habit you've had ever since you were a young bug.

"Y/n huh? I like that."

The way your name rolled off her lips made you slightly dizzy, it sounded good, way too good, enchanting even.

"Don't you want to know my actual name?"

Your ears perked up at that.

"It's Natasha, Natasha Romanoff."

"Wow..."

It was even prettier than you expected it to be, and it fits her a lot. Her voice kept repeating in your mind, and it won't go away.

The echo of her beautiful name.

Natasha Romanoff, Natasha Romanoff, Natasha Romanoff....

"Do you like my name that much?"

"Huh?"

"You've been saying my name in repeat for a while now."

yikes.

"And your face is all red"

double yikes.

Your antennaes drooped as you fidget in place, eyes looking anywhere but at her. Your mind was spinning, everything was going at full speed in there, you didn't know what to think, what to say, what to do, it was all so fast to the point where everything was a blur.

Seeing you panicking like this made her chuckle. Sure she knew she's got an effect on people, and she never really cared about them.

But what you're failing to see here is that you had just as much of an effect on her. The way you looked so attentively at her whenever she speaks, as if absorbing every single word with such care and warmth, the way your eyes gleam when you asked if she's Ariel, down to the way you're panicking at her teasing right now, everything about you made her feel all warm. Comfortable even.

You're odd, but it only made her want to get to know you more.

Her slender fingers reached out, gently lifting your chin to make you look at her.

"Do you know that you're very strange?"

The sensors on your head drooped even further at that, is it because you're not a Terran? Is it because you look weird and have antennaes?

"I'm sorry I'm not a terran..."

Her eyebrows furrowed.

"What?"

"I'm not like you Natasha, I'm not terran..."

You felt her hands move to cup your face, and oh how you wish you could lean on them forever.

"Y/n, you've misunderstood, I meant it in a good way, and you're strange because,well, you're you. You're unique. And it has nothing to do with having antennaes or not. Though they do add to your scale of cuteness."

She laughed as your face started to flush once more, releasing your face to lean on the railing.

You don't know if you wanna slap that cheeky grin off her lips or kiss her it off instead, but your mind was once again all hazy.

Gosh, you're down bad.

Leaning onto the railing, you closed your eyes to calm yourself down, focusing on the cool night wind blowing at your face.

It felt nice and calming. What time is it? It's probably way past midnight, and with the soft wind cradling you, your mind was starting to slowly fall into rest.

Unbeknownst to you, Natasha had her eyes on you this whole time, and your dipping head landed onto her waiting palm, stopping you from headbanging onto the railing.

She carried you as your knees started to buckle, carefully placing you on the couch in the living room. She watched over you until the guardians decided that it was time to leave, they thanked her and walked out into the night with you still fast asleep on Gamora's back.

The twinge of jealousy that appeared was something unexpected.

Why is she jealous? Was it the fact that you seem so comfortable the zenwhoberian? Was it because she wanted to be the one you snuggle into? The one you're most comfortable with?

Whatever it is, she knew she must meet you again.

You woke up in a daze the next morning. How'd you end up back in your room? Weren't you talking with Natasha?

Where's Natasha?

The sound of the door creaking open put your thoughts to a pause.

"Y/n! Breakfast is ready!"

Peter walked in with a glass of water in his hand, handing it over for you to drink.

"What's on your mind? I can see the gears in your head turning you know?"

You placed the glass down on the nightstand before turning to face you brother.

"PETER!"

"Wha- why the shout?!"

"What did you do before you married Mora?"

A blink.

Another blink.

"Oh, I proposed."

"What's proposed?"

And that's how Peter ended up telling you the whole story of him going ring shopping.

"I wanna buy a ring!"

Peter choked on his own spit. Whom for?? When did you find a lover?

"I wanna propose to Natasha!"

And the next thing he knew, he was already dragged out of the door.

The day somehow ended with you bouncing on your feet outside the avengers compound, a panting Peter Quill right behind you.

You had requested to meet Natasha, and was currently waiting for her to come down the multiple floors of the tower.

Peter was still trying to catch his breath after running around non-stop for the whole day.

"Y/n *pant* you can't just-"

He was cut off by the sound of the elevator door opening, revealing the gorgeous red-headed woman of your dreams.

"Hey Y/n, what's up-"

"Marry me!"

The whole floor went silent. Until Peter awkwardly spoke up,

"Sorry, I really tried to stop her, but she wouldn't listen."

When the redhead heard that you had come to give her a visit, she was much more excited than she would admit, her heart was pounding and she was in the elevator merely seconds after she heard the information, wanting to know why you were here again.

But a proposal from you was not something that she had expected.

"Marry me please Natasha?"

She looked at you standing there with puppy eyes, your hands presenting a red gemmed ring pop to her. This was certainly not something she gets to see everyday.

A hearty chuckle escaped her lips, and you deflated a bit, thinking that maybe she was mocking you. But your thoughts were dismissed when you feel a pair of soft lips pressed against your cheek.

"You're adorable you know that?"

You were frozen in place, did she just kiss you on the cheek?

What does this mean?

"As cute as this whole proposal was, I think I'll have to refuse it."

Your antennaes drooped in disappointment. You just got rejected.

"But instead..."

She placed her fingers on your chin.

"Let me take you out on a few dates first hm?"

Your mouth open and closed in wordless confusion.

"Date?"

"Yes date, we can go anywhere you'd like, how about that?"

Your eyes gleamed.

"Can we watch The Little Mermaid?"

She threw her head back laughing. Oh, could you be any cuter than you already are? But of course, she nodded and pulled you with her into the elevator. Leaving poor Peter to go back to the ship by himself.

Though he didn't mind, because seeing his sister so happy was worth it.

Maybe you'd have your happy ending after all, not with Prince Eric, but with beautiful badass Ariel instead.

And that's more than enough for you ❤️

Oh, and Thor asked for the ring pop, and you gave it to him. Thor is happy. Good job!

MASTERLIST

Misa amane isnt funny. A sense of humor depends on each person thats why it's the hardest when aurhors write comedy. Look at the guy getting punched by will smith. Not all the jokes will have buyers. Misa is secondly the most favorite character of the author (aka mary sue). Thats why she never dies onscreen, despite she halved her lifespan twice. She gets away w/ her murders in the tv show, in the musicals, etc etc. Shes over sexualized by the anime studio - on demand of tsugumi, because he created her jus' in order for fanservice. She acts childish all the time and its dangerous when you think about the crimes against children. Shes a poser, shes from kyoto but she uses the tokyo accent - that partly is a fault of aya hirano. Ayas voice is really terrible, i prefer the eng dub or the manga itself lol. She can't speak there - you have the mute option always anyways. The manga is much more beautiful - when compared. I hate misa because shes an annoying chick, not that i prefer lxlight. I think L should get misa so my light could be free . i ship him with kiyomi and mikami and yuri altogether. So what? Don't "misas backstory" me. Not everyone has to agree with her just because she saw her parents getting murdered. You know what? Not all the people go thru traumas and go be an idol. Grow up people. This chick is the epitome of mary sue and misogyny. This has nothing to do with lawlight.

#youre the same anon who got mad that i dont think light is a chef arent you #ask #anon #p

Out of curiosity, have you also read (or are planning to read) Arsene Lupin by Maurice Leblanc? Considering it's closeness to holmes and there genre and writing style in general, I'm wondering what you think of them.

I have heard of it but I haven't read it.

I know it's the origin of the Herlock Sholmes character after Doyle didn't let the aurhor use Holmes.

If you could make any official crossover you wanted, what would you make? It could be anything you want from games, tv shows, cook book aurhors and in between!

I'm actually not a big crossover person! But actually, when I was in junior high school, I read a fanfic where Doctor Who (who I was unfamiliar with at the time) traveled to the world of Fushigi Yuugi and helped some characters with their problems in a sort of prequel-turned-AU, and it was very, very good to my preteen tastes and actually had a huge impact on my developing writing and storytelling sensibilities. So to this day I think that Doctor Who could successfully cross over with pretty much anything. Put that guy (gender-neutral) in a situation

The confession

requested: yes! i lost the request but it said ”something related to kissing chris in the rain”

warnings: one cuss word, mentions of puking and bad writing😭

aurhors note: this is so bad but I thought I would try this! Also I wrote this on my phone at school so yeah😭💀

The Confession

Y/N’S POV:

Y/n had been friends with the triplets for about 2 years. Y/n moved to Boston and didnt have any friends. Luckily she met Nick. When she was at a Mcdonalds she spilled her drink on Nick and they both just bursted out laughing. Thats how she met Nick, which led to her being friends with the triplets.

Fast forward to now, theyve hanged out almost every day and Y/n noticed shed been developing feeings for Chris during that time. She first tried to just brush it out and hope the feelings fade. But lately, all she could think about was Chris. His blue eyes and gorgeus smile. Y/n daydreamed while at their house streaming. Nick of course noticed this. “Hey Y/n, whatcha thinking of?” Nick teased. “Oh nothing, just school stuff” Y/n answered. “You sure?You look kinda pale and sick” Matt said. Suddenly you felt weird and nauseous. You felt like you were about to pass out. Shit. You forgot to take your meds today. You felt like it just popped up and you were being dramatic. Then it hit you like someone punched you in the stomach. You stared at Matt in horror and got up slowly. The next thing you know is you puking into their toilet. You were just screaming apologies and ran out of the door. It was pouring rain and you had to find somewhere to stay.

CHRIS’ POV

Ive been friends with Y/n for 2 years now. She moved from minnesota due to her parents divorce. We have hung out a lot and she has become one of the keys to my happiness. I never thought Id cath feelings for her but lately ive been really thinking about it. One day I looked at her and boom. I fell in love. Thats where all the chaos started. I started to be distant from her and she hung out with Matt and Nick more. I knew she would never catch feelings for me so I just let it brush off.

I opened the door to Matt’s room and there she was. The most gorgeus girl ive ever seen. Her dark silky hair and her beautiful green eyes. I just stared at her but then she talked to me. “Hi Chris. Is everyhing alright??” I stuttered and said yes . I just walked out of the room and went to my own. In 15 minutes I heard Y/n apologise and run away through the door.

“ What the fuck! What happened?” I asked Matt. He explained everything and I needed to find her.

Y/N’S POV

I was running on the streets and stopped in front of an abandoned gas station. I sat there for about ten minutes until I heard someone running towards me. I jumped up and screamed but then I felt a warm feeling and noticed that someone hugged me. It was Chris. The boy Ive loved for over a year was hugging me.

I pulled out and looked at him.

He smiled down at me and I felt happy.” why did you come here?” I asked. ”I felt like you could use some support” he smiled. He looked at me and I felt the tension. Was this the moment? Would he kiss me? Suddenly I felt his lips on mine

I was shocked but so grateful he did it. After a while He pulled out and looked at me. “Y/n. Ive liked you for a long time now and I-“ he was interrupted by me kissing him. “Yes I will be your girlfriend”

he smiled at me and we both just faded into that moment. “EW CHRIS WTF” Nick yelled. how the fuck did he find us? We just looked at eachother and started laughing. Everyhting was just right.

hi! just finished And This, Your Living Kiss yesterday and omg dmnfkddmsks people weren't lying! anyways, i was wondering if you have any recommendations on similar fics? poet!dean is just🥺

Ahhh I was also reluctant to read ATYlK at first because I don't like AUs in general but I am so glad some people on here cinvinced me to give it a chance because oh boy it's a fucking masterpiece!!! I loved everything about it but what stood out to me is how masterfully the enviroment was presented. I feel like this is something that gets glossed over in fanfics usually but this fic man! Made me feel like I was at the campus with Dean and then that I was in his poetry class!! Legit made me want to go back to academia, I am not exaggerating at all 😅 And the reveal scene!!!!! I was feeling all the emotions reading it!

Sorry to ramble, but this fic makes it so easy to!

Anyways, I am actually the last person to ask for fic recs because my ao3 is a mess and I keep telling myself I need to organize but I never do. So me finding fics again is mostly in the hands of the fates because I rarely bookmark stuff however there are a couple fics in my bookmarks still:

The Cheapest Room In The House by biggaybenny

aka the famous Grindr fic. And that makes it sound silly I know but I promise you you will expereince every shrimp emotion reading this

In this Lousianna Bar by fleeceframe

Premise: Castiel travels back in time to hang out with S1 Dean and it's beautiful and heartbreaking and there is so much love there my god

The Wreck by fleeceframe

Dean & Cas have a heart-to-heart.

(tbh I recomment any fleeceframe fic, I have read a good chunk of their stuff and every single one is phenomenal)

Regarding Castiel by eddiegirl

Imagines what would have happened if Cas had been in Regarding Dean

On Labor by a_good_soldier

I think this might be my most favourite post finale fix it fic ever. It's so juicy by which I mean it it such a real and true look at Dean and his neuroses and oc it has a happy ending!

Six Hundred Sundays (And Many More) by sobsicles

I believe this is also post finale? Tbh I don't remmeber the details beyond it being about these two idiots failing to communicate and then at one point succeeding. Also Dean builds Cas a gazebo!!!

sobsicles is another aurhor that just gets Dean & Cas so I'd recommend reading all their stuff of you dig this one

The Most Important Thing by NorthernSparrow

Northern Sparrow is another big name in the fandom and I think there are probably fics by then that are more popular than this one but this was the first foc of theirs I read and it just stuck with me because of it's wonderful premise -Jimmy is raising his teenage daughter except something's not right. This has a lot of Claire which I enjoyed because imo Claire is a Hamlet caliber of character on SPN who is constantly being underexplored so this was nice. Though there is plenty of Destiel n this too and their relationship does become pivotal towards the end.

Sorry these are all canonverse but as I said, AUs aren't uaully my thing! Happy reading! 💕
